See why Keppel Corp is deemed top O&M stock pick

3 key advantages, according to PhillipCapital.

The research firm said that Keppel Corp stands out as its top pick among oil & marine stocks because of its stronger operating performance, better execution and attractive dividend yield of 4.6%.

For the sector as a whole, PhillipCapital also noted that fundamentals for the O&M sector remains strong.

But management from both Keppel Corp and Sembcorp Marine see competition from the Chinese and Korean yards may put pressure on margins.

Meanwhile in the small/mid cap space, Ezion is considered a strong performer with its good business model and high earnings growth visibility made possible through its SEU fleet expansion with firm contracts already secured.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
